Notes from the Resistance...
The use of the phrase “Stand-Your-Ground” to refer to self-defense immunity is an indication of seriously defective understanding of the law, as well as a considerable contributor (intentionally?) to confusion in the public mind on what “Stand-Your-Ground” actually does (pro-tip, “Stand-Your-Ground” merely waives the legal duty to retreat before using otherwise lawful deadly force in self-defense, and that’s all it does). [More]Yes, it's intentional.
Bond was set at $20,000 apiece. [More]So they can be trusted without a custodian?

As much as I admire David Codrea, I retain the opinion that he is flat wrong when he worries about immigration. [More]Then answer the challenge. And explain how the welfare state can be reduced if those who buy votes through "wealth redistribution" keep adding Democrats.
A man, in his 20s, has been arrested on suspicion of terror offences [More]But the threat is Tommy Robinson?
Over the last week the Washington Post, New York Times, CNN. NBC News, CBS News, Bloomberg, The New Yorker, Vox, and the Daily Beast have all written a plethora of over 20 articles on the Qanon Movement all using highly similar talking points to marginalize the movement. [More]Isn't that what they call "collusion"?
Ovalle is not an isolated example. Misconduct by law enforcement officers who testify in court is routinely kept hidden by California’s police privacy laws. [More]Well, yeah.
According to expert Eric Eggers, research director at the Government Accountability Institute, 170 registered voters in Ohio’s 12th Congressional District are listed as being “over 116 years old.” Considering that the world’s oldest living person is a 115-year-old resident of Japan, this is a big problem. [More]When first learning about the initial reported tabulation discrepancy, I dismissed it from being the result of fraud. My response to a couple different people who sent me the link at that time was:
I'm a longtime PEO (Precinct Election Official) in Ohio and there are pretty good validation and audit procedures in place. This smells to me more of VLM (VotingLocation Manager) incompetence / laziness that got revealed once the Board of Elections took over. If corruption was involved, Republicans had to be a part of it -- we get partnered one-on-one with the other party at the voting locations and everybody has to sign off on safeguards and results . In re validating absentee ballots or provisionals, that takes place above my pay grade, but again, it's not like the process isn't bipartisan.This is a whole 'nother animal. If what this new report says is true, this is registration fraud that precedes the chunk I'm involved in, and it's on Jon Husted to make prevention and prosecution his top priorities.
“It’s looking more and more like white supremacy these days,” Scarborough said. [More]I don't suppose Establishment media darlings are interested in taking a challenge to see if it might be something else...
Before becoming LAPD chief, Michel Moore retired, collected a $1.27 million payout and was rehired [More]I'm sure he's worth every penny of your money to his masters.
Two kids among 12 injured by SHOTGUN in Manchester shooting rampage at street party [More]Give it a few years.
The officer hits the man with an onslaught of blows as he wrestles him onto the top of a house's front steps. He punches the man's head multiple times as he lays on the steps, eventually holding him down to the ground. The man, who doesn't return a punch to the officer in the video, appears to bleed from his mouth as the officer holds a forearm to his face while grabbing his arm. [More]Too bad it's on video -- otherwise he could have been charged with resisting arrest.
Women on inflatable rainbow unicorn rescued from Chisago County lake [More]Any bets they know what it's like to wear pink pussy hats and "think" guns should be banned?
As if it couldn’t get much worse for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Washington Post hit the rising progressive star with a massive fact check on Friday, finding that many of her recent claims are downright false. [More]That presupposes those who would vote for her care about objective truths over identity politics and emotions.
...Online Athens, reported one of the positions highlighted on her website was “responsible” gun regulation. Collins said we need to, “shield the community from the effects of firearms falling into the wrong hands.” One year later, she is behind bars charged with the shooting death of her former campaign treasurer. [More]We call such sentiments "projection," or alternatively, being a hypocritical @$$h01e...
"A Texas gun dealer [Academy] cannot sell a firearm and deliver that firearm to a citizen of another State if that sale would not be legal in the purchaser's State of residence," the lawsuit reads. " [More]We just saw an Ohio incident that once again proves how important it is for FFLs and their employees to know what they're doing. Certain non-standard transactions merit extra scrutiny and extra discipline. There are areas where it's not better to act and seek permission later.
An Illinois man is charged with reckless conduct after authorities say his 4-year-old son found a gun in a backpack his father had brought to him at day care. [More]Good. Dumb-ass.

ANTIFA VOWS “BULLETS” FOR POLITICAL ENEMIES; MEDIA IGNORES THREAT - Far left group’s open incitement to violence gets zero press coverage [More]Keep it up, manchildren. Continue not having the intelligence, maturity or judgment to know when to tone it down. And continue being ignorant of your intended prey, which may know more about you than you realize.
As a police officer and chief investigator for the Stark County Coroner’s Office explained, federal law did not require Claren to undergo a background check to purchase the replica of the antique firearm. However, it appears that Ohio's state law did require a background check. [More]This just came across the transom as I was preparing to call it a week and I don't have much time to spend right now. I confess to never considering this before having never been in the market for one, but ILA seems to agree:
Antiques and Replicas - Antique and antique replica rifles, shotguns, or handguns are treated like modern arms for possession, carrying and purchase purposes.I don't see where that language appears in Ohio Revised Code. What I found there says:
(L) "Dangerous ordnance" does not include any of the following: (1) Any firearm, including a military weapon and the ammunition for that weapon, and regardless of its actual age, that employs a percussion cap or other obsolete ignition system, or that is designed and safe for use only with black powder;Well that certainly confuses the issue.
‘‘I hope it would educate readers to realize that an attack on the First Amendment is unacceptable,’’ she said. ‘‘We are a free and independent press, it is one of the most sacred principles enshrined in the Constitution.’’ [More]Independent? That must be why they're engineering a collaborative propaganda effort.
'I hate this county. I prayed to God that he would curse it': Footage shows DUI arrest of congressional candidate (with VIDEO) [More]Is .107 really enough to account for this? The guy sounds like he has other issues.
The Second Amendment grants us the right to bear arms, but the courts have held that it is entirely within the right of the government to place certain restrictions on this right."Grants"? As in "privileges"? (Long-timers will recall I took some heat for that one.)
AMENDMENT TWO: A LEGAL IMMIGRANT’S CAUTIONARY TALE by Anonymous [More]I missed this when it first posted.
"Presumably the qualifications for entry and naturalization will be whether those who wish to enter demonstrate a capacity to adopt the habits, manners, independence, and self-reliance of republican citizens and devotion to the principles that unite the American people. Furthermore, it would be unreasonable not to expect that potential immigrants should possess useful skills that will ensure that they will not become victims of the welfare state."[Via Keith B]
The Democratic Party’s New Litmus Test: Gun Control - Candidates for the 2018 House midterms are pushing a muscular firearms-regulation agenda, a wholesale repositioning after the party for a generation avoided new limits [More]Gutless Republicans dousing belly fires is the only reason I don't welcome this.

A rookie police officer who, according to authorities, said he had "f----d up" and "didn't know what to do" when he fatally shot an unarmed man in Pennsylvania has been charged with voluntary manslaughter, prosecutors said Tuesday.

Check out the salaries paid to police chiefs across the St. Louis region [More]Some of them aren't as much as I'd presumed they'd be, making me wonder about expense, insurance, pension, investment and other perks not reported here.

It’s not unfair to wonder if his prosecution had less to do with the law and with justice than it did with discrediting, sticking it to and neutralizing an obstacle to their ambitions, one they wanted to silence by using the overwhelming “public” resources under their personal control. [More]The "authorities" had means, motive and opportunity...
Roofer Arrested After Killing Fellow Worker With Circular Saw [More]I was undecided on taking this in the "When circular saws are outlawed" or the "No background check" or the "No one needs..." direction and then realized he could have just pushed him off.
Chicago police solve only one in every 20 shootings [More]They're not much good at stopping them or keeping the ones they've caught, either.
Oklahoma’s wretched record on wrongful convictions [More]And that's under a presumptive system of innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Now consider all those unAmerican prior restraints on the right to keep and bear arms presuming the exact opposite.

Aren’t we constantly lectured that immigrants come here to work and not to get on welfare?

OCASIO-CORTEZ SAYS UPPER MIDDLE CLASS ‘DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE’ IN AMERICA [More]True, that's the plan, but those cards are supposed to stay buried in the deck until it's time to play them.
That suggests it is the position of the Trump Justice Department that, despite all the agent bias, misconduct and unanswered questions, the decision not to prosecute Clinton is final and the case will not be reopened or even seriously reviewed. [More]Perhaps that's because she has stuff on them?
So even if Clinton had been kept in the dark (and that has not been definitively established), the question remains why State did not pursue violations by DOJ – and who was involved in making (ordering) that outcome. [More]Curious -- just like in the beginning, no one from Congress or the media seems very interested even though there are plenty of identified threads to pull...
“It’s the guy in the White House,” he says. “It’s not even dog whistles. They’re not even doing it on the sneak! They’re not even doing it on the low-low. This is blatant.

"My husband, an emergency-medicine physician [had] seen what men with guns could do."Did he surreptitiously take the picture? Did he get it from a colleague who took it? Did the parents consent? Were any medical ethics violated or hopital patient privacy protocols breached? Was it from a crime scene, and if so, is its dissemination beyond investigators and courts authorized?
